Ahhh Ontario, the California of Canada................

It is only -23.5C most of the time and we get 7 hours every other Wednesday. Seriously most of southern Ontario is at the same latitude as southern Oregon/northern California and although it is not as warm as those states, it is certainly comparable to a lot of the New England, Mid Atlantic and Midwestern lake states. However, I lived two years in Edmonton, Alberta (1980-82, the most northernly, large city (>1M) in North America) and in the winter of 81-82 we had six weeks when the highest it got was -25C and it was -45C at night (excluding wind chill). On top of that this post doc had no car, my wife and I had two little kids and there was a bus strike at the same time. Getting groceries was "interesting". Oh, and the sun came up after 9 AM and set by about 4 PM. Yuck. I did like the sunny, open skies and the stuff you hear about a dry cold compared to -4C in Seattle or Vancouver, British Columbia is actually true.

Shhhhh don't give away our secrets. How else do you think we deal with months of -25C or colder weather and only 6 hours of sunlight a day... -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Whittaker, Dewey (EHCOE) Sent: January 18, 2008 3:30 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] Solderability of Tin-Gold Intermetallic NTC Usually all of Canada is lumped into one state...
